The whole secret to these two was getting the telescope and camera lined up perfectly as the moon was coming into the lens on the telescope. Once it was actually a decent shot, I took a few of them and finally got a few that I liked. Anyway...you'd laugh if you saw the full zoom (55mm) at the moon with out the telescope...it's a HUGE difference...

Anyway...that's about it...just get the telescope and camera set up on tripods and you're good to go. Oh, and I'm sure you already know this one, but the moon seems to like to move around from time to time...from this last experience, I found that for a nice crisp shot, anything faster than 1/60th is best.

David!
You took your time in saying "Thank you" ... what kept you away from us here?
